computer generated mailings are just great...can't think of anything i like better than the cold antiseptic feel of an ersatz personal message from a manipulative whore that turns up in my mailbox disguised as a friendly invitation to a chat...pete doesn't respond to my email queries anymore...surely red flags wave in abundance when the robots pick up anything i send...and he certainly wouldn't include me on any list of people he'd personally invite (at least i hope not...it would force a painful reappraisal of my political worldview)...but his computer will crank out an anonymous invitation...i got the "union worker" version with some blather about job creation and economy rebuilding...complete with a union bug to show it was printed by union labor even if it was addressed by as scab ( okay...that's a bit harsh...but i bet his staff isn't unionized)...will i be going? well...he'll be in my hometown on the 13th of next month...although why you'd have a town hall meeting while city court is in session is beyond me ( after a few hours of rumination on the vagaries of life and the low-life ethics of politicians the idea of a captive audience presents itself with startling clarity...no-one leaves without the judges say so and the judge is a whore too)...perhaps traffic violators are an untapped demographic...the coming "swing" voters...there's a picture of old pete on the mailing as he "...reviews construction of the 109th avenue I-65 interchange in crown point...i suppose to highlight the dynamism of his earmarked projects ( note the proletarian hardhat...i haven't seen this bozo in a baseball cap yet, but it must have happened at one point or another...frightening thought...like dick nixon in bermuda shorts and a floral print shirt)...so i thought i'd throw in a photo of the reality of his rust belt district...much of what made it is deeply unattractive
